Rosie May
Ceramic Artist

Rosie May is a British ceramic designer working at the intersection of craft and contemporary lighting design. Based in Essex, she develops sculptural lighting as collectible design objects from her studio.
Porcelain remains central to her work for its translucency, allowing the light to be softened and shaped through the body of the material. Using slipcasting techniques, she develops forms that allow precise manipulation of wall thickness and surface to influence the diffusion of light.
Rosie graduated in Ceramic Design from Central Saint Martins in 2025. Since graduating, her work has been exhibited in London and featured in Architectural Digest. She is currently expanding her practice into a cohesive collection of studio-made lighting for contemporary homes.
